My 34 week update & first day of maternity leave x

My Bump x

Today is Day 1 of my Maternity leave, 6 weeks prior to my due date. Its with a mixture of sadness and relief that I have finished 3 weeks before I had planned too. Following an appointment with my GP on Friday, I had a very honest discussion about how I was feeling, she advised it was time to listen to my body and slow down.

So here I am Monday morning, still in my PJ's, wondering how I'm going to fill my once fashion filled days. Images of afternoon tea with my yummy mummies, preparing the baby room and having a well overdue pamper day all comes to mind. But in reality I need a few days to just procrastinate.

The baby's room is yet to be painted, furniture yet to be delivered, baby clothes waiting to be washed and baby plans yet to be written... However other than packing my hospital bag, I am going to fill this week with Sex and the City re-runs, afternoon naps, relaxation and curling up with a good book.

Its such a guilty pleasure, but once the baby comes will I be able to enjoy just lying down with a trashy novel? x
